Chapter 226
Bride of Mr.Billion
Bellaâs POV I stood on the balcony and yelled, âHey, Patricia, youâre slandering me! Youâre saying that Iâve ruined rich peopleâs families?â
With one hand on her waist, Patricia yelled at me, âBella, whereâs your childâs father? If itâs a legitimate child, why didnât he show up?â
There were more and more onlookers.
Mom lowered her head and stopped talking. I could see that she was very upset.
I didnât care about my reputation, but it was impossible that Mom didnât care about hers.
After all, she was a traditional person.
My mother must be very ashamed now. It was all because of me.
In order not to let my mother suffer like this, I shouted very impulsively, âMy childâs father will come to pick us up tomorrow.â
âWell, letâs see if there is any man coming to pick you up tomorrow. I hope he is not an ugly old man!â
âI guess that no one will come tomorrowâ¦â The onlookers were all laughing at me.
âYouâll know when the time comes. Itâs best if you donât go anywhere tomorrow!â I said, âIâm sure I wonât go anywhere tomorrow. Iâll just carry a small stool and sit at the door of our building and watch your husband pick you up!â The tone of Patricia was very arrogant.
I ignored her and closed the window.
I didnât know what happened outside.
Soon, mother went upstairs. She came to my room.
At this moment, I was sitting by the bed and looking at Lucky who was sleeping.
When everything calmed down, I regretted what I said just now. I was too impulsive.
Even if I wanted to say those words, I should have given myself a longer time.
Where could I find a father for my child in such a short time?
But now that I had said it, I had to do it this time. I had to shut Patriciaâs mouth.
âLetâs see what youâll do tomorrow!â Mother sat on the sofa and said angrily. I said apologetically, âMom, I know I caused you a lot of trouble when I came back this time. Itâs all my fault. I will find a way to solve this problem.â
During the whole afternoon, I was thinking about how to deal with this matter.
After hesitating for a long time, I made my decision. âBella?â Kleinâs voice was filled with joy. I took a deep breath and said, âKlein, I didnât disturb your work, did I?â Klein said, âNo. I donât need to go to court today.â âItâs been more than two months. Iâve never called you. I thought you would never call me again!â
Clearly, Klein was in a state of joy.
15 54 I sighed. âKlein, every time Iâm in trouble, Iâll only call you. I feel ashamed myself.â
I thought about it for the entire afternoon. Most likely, only Klein could help me with this matter, so I made a phone call.
Klein was silent for a moment, then said, âThis means that you trust me.â
âI do trust you,â I said, twitching the corner of my mouth. âBella, are you in trouble?â Klein asked.
âIâ¦â I didnât know what to say.
Klein was frantic. âIs Lucky in trouble? Iâll be right there!â I could hear the sound of Klein standing up and walking. I hurriedly said, âNo. Lucky is fine. Itâs meâ¦itâs me who encountered some trouble.â Hearing this, Klein let out a sigh of relief, then asked, âWhat sort of trouble? Do you want me to go over now?â
âI want you to come here, but not now, tomorrow,â I bit my lower lip and said.
After a few seconds of silence, I continued, âI need you to pretend to be my husband tomorrow. Itâs complicated, and I donât know how to explain it.â
âThereâs no need to explain Bella. Iâm willing to help you. I have to attend a court tomorrow morning. Can I go there tomorrow afternoon?â Klein asked.
âYes, thank you, Klein.â I said,
